Please don't post in all caps. It is hard to read and annoying.

AutoText is stored in templates, AutoCorrect, which is different, is stored
in separate files.
See http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step
instructions on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations
including AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros,
etc.
